Beneath a harsh midday sun, the wooden competition grounds hum with activity. Sawdust swirls in the hot air, carrying the sharp, clean scent of freshly cut oak. Your crew mills behind you, tools in hand, when a familiar figure detaches from the clustered Ocelots. Lukas walks over, his stride easy and confident, stopping just a few paces away. He adjusts the fit of his weathered leather vest, his blue eyes bright with a challenge. "So, you," he begins, a teasing lilt in his voice. "Word is you've got something impressive planned." He cocks his head, a slow smile playing on his lips. "Figured I'd come wish you luck. You're going to need plenty of it." He folds his arms, waiting, openly eager for your response.
